Description
Bring natural beauty to your home’s exterior with an Emerald Green Arborvitae Tree. You can use Emerald Green as a medium-sized screen or vertical element in your landscape. Compact, feathery foliage is soft to the touch and will stay green all year. The effect complements a vast range of landscape styles. In addition, this plant can effectively serve as a privacy screen when clustered and make an elegant addition to topiary plantings. Once established, it will require little to no maintenance and grow in a consistent, symmetrical shape. This Emerald Green arborvitae tree is suitable for USDA zones 4 through 8. For best results, apply a slow-release granular fertilizer in the spring.
- First, dig a hole three times the width of the root ball of your plant. This makes it easier for the root system to spread out quickly.
- Dig the hole deep enough that your plant will sit level with or slightly above the ground around it.
- Mix your native soil with rich gardening soil to provide extra nutrients and support plant growth.
- Put the plant in the hole and backfill around it with the soil mixture.
- Top the soil beneath your plant with 3-4 inches of mulch to help it retain moisture.
- Soak the plant with a hose afterward to hydrate the plant, as well as get the soil and mulch situated.
